I did not respond to this survey, because the right answer was not there.
The right answer is that this nation must return to its roots, Biblical Christianity, and Jesus Christ. There is no other way.
Public schools and most colleges brain wash our children with the liberal agenda. Continue what Charlie Kirk started on college campuses, showing these kids that Christianity and conservativism make better human beings. Socialist/communist agendas have always failed and only make our country more dangerous. Let them know that standing up to these liberal teachers and professors rather than following their dark teaching is OK.
☑ Stand firm
☑ Protect .. stronger security
☑ Hold media accountable
☑ Promote unity
☑ Ensure everyone is treated fairly (which includes being harsher on the protected/elite class where they are treated with kid gloves normally)
So many right answers, can’t pick just one.
“A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:10-12
Jesus called Satan “the prince of this world” (John 12:31). Satan has blinded the minds of unbelievers, obstructing them from seeing the light and truth of the gospel. This blindness is not merely a lack of understanding but a deliberate obstacle created by Satan to keep people from recognizing their need for a Savior and accepting the truths of Christianity.
Even though the god of this age blinds the minds of unbelievers, his power is limited. Ultimately, God is in control. In His sovereign wisdom, God allows Satan to operate in this world and take unbelievers “captive to do his will” (2 Timothy 2:26) and live “under the control of the evil one” (1 John 5:19).
However, time is running out for Satan and in his desperation, he is pulling out all the stops because he knows the end of his rule is coming very quickly. Since the Garden, evil has been prevalent in many forms. The Bible is full of stories about corruption, murder, sexual immorality, child sacrifice, thievery, etc. Today we are witnessing atrocities that break our hearts.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk is one of those atrocities that has shaken us to our core. Satan has warped the minds of those who reject God by causing them to resist and go to battle against truth that is expressed.
Charlie was devoted to sharing truth, honoring God, his family, and his country through his willingness to boldly face his challengers. His compassion, intelligence, courage, and gift of listening and speaking were awesome to witness during his short life on earth. We can easily compare him to another Christian martyr – Stephen. Like Stephen, Charlie’s life—and even more so his death—should be an example of how every believer should strive to live: committed to the Lord even in the face of death; faithful to share his faith boldly; knowledgeable of God’s truth; and willing to be used by God for His plan and purpose. Charlie’s life and legacy will stand as a beacon, a light to a lost and dying world.
“Stephen was a man full of faith and power. He did many great things among the people.”
Acts 6:8
The assassination of Charlie Kirk has rocked our world, and at the same time has inspired us to continue to grow what Charlie started. In doing so, we must all put on the armor of God. The good news is that he is now in the presence of Jesus. Amen to that!
Another choice in the poll should have been: Designate the Democrat Communist Party a terrorist organization. Because that’s what it is, masquerading as a legitimate political party.
Not just the media, but the politicians on the left also. They are the ones who set the tone & the corporate media falls in line w their talking points.
All of the above. There has to be accountability, not just for the shooter but for all who fan the flames of hate and intolerance… on both sides of the aisle. Frankly, we’ve raised generations of wimps, easily offended by words, afraid of opposing ideas, who feel entitled to silence those with whom they disagree. That must change.
Satan sits in hell with a perpetual grin on his face, especially today. Look at these deluded (to use for a better word) college students who smile & smirk with their snarky comments about the murder of Charlie Kirk. You really have to wonder how they were raised by their parents – who are most likely just as bad. Not to mention the marxist / communist professors who indoctrinate the feeble minded youth in their clutches. Look up the quotes from Vladimir Lenin and his view of children, and you will see today what is occurring in our schools, and it’s no longer confined to just colleges. It’s infiltrated to the elementary levels on up through junior and senior high schools. This is by design: indoctrinate them while they’re young, and the marxist Jew hating professors push it day in and day out. The communists/marxists brook no disagreement with their sick ideas, and this is why Charlie Kirk was murdered. The Communists silence all dissent, it’s their MO. How long do you think you’d criticize Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, et al and live? Not long. This is why this creep killed Charlie Kirk: it was the silencing of dissent.
The murder of Charlie Kirk will not serve the democrats well – and they know it. They should be worried. The attempted assassination of Donald Trump only strengthened him.
In Seattle, Washington there is a bronze, 16 ft. tall statue of Lenin. It should be removed, taken to a foundry, melted down and cast into sewer grates.
Here is a partial lyric from Elton John’s song titled Empty Garden:
“…It’s funny how one insect can damage so much grain…”
I think that sums up the “person” who murdered Charlie Kirk.
God bless all of you out there!!!
Also hold Democrat politicians accountable for their despicable rhetoric! You can’t compromise with people who constantly demonize everything you say and do. There will be no agreement as long as Democrats continue their hate speech!
The assassination of Charlie Kirk was horrific and unwarranted. What kind of country have we become that we have to resort to this type of tragedy. His poor wife , children ,relatives and friends will never see him again. Charlie was a visionary who believed in his faith, God and would debate to make his point. B e did not preach hatred, nor demean people who disagreed with him, he was looking to share his beliefs for the greater good of America and the world and for this he was taken back to his maker in the most unfortunate way possible because someone did not agree with him. There is no place for this kind of reaction. Charlie is and was a true patriotic person. Keep him in your thoughts and his family in your prayers. This is a disgusting time in America. We keep on this path and we will suffer the consequences.
We are living the 1960’s all over again. JFK was assassinated. RFK was assassinated. MKL Jr was assassinated. Their was an attempt on Wallace. Colleges were protesting the war with violence, and I remember our city was under a curfew due to the race riots, which were also violent.
It was a time in our history when the communists in our country were trying to make another move as they destroyed the family, pushed women’s rights, took over the education system, and expanded the welfare state. It was the democrat party pushing this agenda.
Today we had 2 assassination attempts against Trump, an attack against the governor of Pennsylvania, the murder of a representative and husband in Minnesota, school shootings, and now the assassination of Charlie Kirk – the MLK Jr of this time. The family has been destroyed, faith is being attacked, the schools have been indoctrinating our children, the media can’t tell the truth, our country is being invaded, violent riots break out over liberal causes, we are killing our population through abortion, and our first amendment rights are under attack. Those liberal hippies of the 60’s are in charge and see this as their last hope at making us a communist country before they die. The 2nd amendment and the rise of the conservative movement under Donald Trump, and all those like Charlie Kirk who stand for our Constitution and Republic are standing in their way. These democrats, RINOs and media hate everyone involved.
This is the communist agenda once again trying to destroy our country. We cannot let them win!
The media must be held accountable. They are inciting the violence. Far too many in congress are inciting the violence. We have a two-tiered system of justice. Criminals are being let out with cashless bail, only to go on to commit more crimes. Illegals get a free pass as the democrat fight for these illegals rather than the citizens. Democrats are obstructing the policies the voters want and overwhelmingly voted for.
Republicans MUST get out to vote in EVERY election is massive numbers. You can no longer complain at home and then stay at home on election day. If we stay home, they win. Our voices cannot be silenced – in the public square and ballot box. Pray for our country.
Again, it’s all of the above.
Mainly Dems, leftists, lamestream media and their hypocritical, disgusting pundits such as Joy Reid, the View, etc, etc. need to quit labeling Trump, Republicans, Conservatives as racist, fascist, nazis and every other negative “….ist”.
Charlie Kirks assassin literally scratched the word “fascist” on his bullets.
Where do you think he got idea to use the word “fascist”?
Dems and Leftists are brainwashing the mentally incompetent and causing the violence.
Repubs and conservatives are peaceful and Do Not riot, kill, burn down cities, etc.when such violence occurs against them.
Unlike George Floyd for example
We have got to get back to the basics of right and wrong; parents need to parent their children, teach them right from wrong, and not coddle them. Instill responsibility and discipline in them. Teach and instill work ethic and meritocracy. Not every child should get a trophy.
Sometimes I wish your last available answer was “all of the above”. This is one of those times.
HAVE TO HOLD POLITICIANS AND MEDIA FOR THEIR CONSTANT REHTORIC AND PROMOTING VIOLENCE. THEY CLAIM EVERYTHING IS WRONG AND YET NEVER SPEAK OF A SOLUTION OR WAYS TO FIX THEM. AS ALWAYS THEY ARE THE DO NOTHINGS. THEIR ACTIONS, SHOW, TELL AND PROVE JUST HOW UNAMERICAN THEY ARE AND THEIR HATRED FOR THE COUNTRY AND THE CITIZENS OF AMERICA.
Have Mercy! First and foremost people protect those who have the courage to speak! Also we need to fight back against these inane rules and laws that restrict us from being able to protect ourselves on college campuses and school grounds, undoubtedly these idiotic gun bans do nothing to stop killers from bringing arms to these places to kill us, why are we barred from bringing arms to protect ourselves? Also people saw this twit on the roof, no one did anything, no security personnel, no law enforcement confronted him. Mr Kirk was left sitting in the open as a sacrifice, gun control is not the answer, except with the ability to control the gun in our hands. When are we going to stop leaving rooftops open to be used by assassins without any type of security covering them? Things are going to get worse before they get better, and we need to understand the people attacking us have no remorse, they have no love for us, they have been brainwashed, we have allowed this to happen, now we have to either teach them the truth or the error of their ways.
Charlie was the professor of truth and invited the young to ask questions, something their college professors didn’t. The young are searching for guidance and unfortunately they were fed a constant diet of doom, and gloom. Charlie through God’s love reached out to them and gave them hope. Satan knew the effectiveness of Charlie’s ministry for God and would not allow it to continue. Of course God could have stopped it, but His plan is beyond our understanding. As Erika Kirk stated last night, the left has no idea what they’ve unleashed. God is at work, put on the full armor of God and be prepared for spiritual battle.
The better option is this: teaching marxism or its derivatives to kids should be a felony. Teaching marxism should be treated the same way teaching naziism would be treated ; any school doing so would be disbanded immediately and the instructors arrested.,we are still producing little commie robots even after this hideous murder. We need to put on the brakes.
Not only hold the media accountable but Democraps and the left in general for fueling hate with lies.
Charge, punish politicians who use their positions of power to “get away with” hate speech, name calling, and working platforms that go against the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
As a nation we have lost the ability to disagree without disrespecting the one with whom we disagree. Name calling, labeling, intimidation, cancel culture and even violence all show that this is the case. It is not just the political left that is guilty. Prayer is needed and has been needed for a long time to plead with God to keep us from tearing ourselves and our country apart. Abraham Lincoln said that a house divided cannot stand. He was echoing Jesus’ words. America has powerful enemies who seek to sow domestic division so that they can take advantage of our weekness. May God help us.
Charlie Kirk was marked by God with an amazing intellect and a gentle but steadfast spirit. Willing to be used by His Savior and Creator he left his mark on this world. If you can testify that the sacrifice of Jesus on Calvary was for the penalty of your sins and the sin of the world and that He arose victorious 3 days later to prove He has the power over sin and the grave then you too have been marked by your heavenly Father, marked to have an impact on this world as well. This world is not our home. The “prince and power of the air” is our enemy, our only true enemy and he is not legislatable. We must be courageous and stand as Charlie did. The time is now for the days are short, His coming is soon.
Charlie Kirk will be very hard to replace; he was kinda of a Christian version of Ben Shapiro, with intelligence and debating skills that rivaled Ben’s and yet he was much more gracious with the people he engaged with, which was very effective in leading many college students to the Lord and away from the demonic left.
Thank you Charlie for your service down here on earth trying to enlighten the future generations to make the world better, may serving God in heaven be even more rewarding!
Outdoor events should have DRONES with live cameras flying over buildings checking for activity. It’s added security and what is missing
Democrats and the MSM have been spewing hatred and lies since the day Trump announced he was running as a Republican. They loved him before that and Hillary said he would make a great President! We need to start suing all these media outlets with slander for the lies. Let them prove their so called facts in court and empty their bank accounts when they lose! Same with the politicians! The Left/Communist have been destroying our values of family, religion and humanity for their plans to divide us. We need to vote out all Democrats and RINOs at every level and elect people of faith and patriotic. We should not allow anyone not born in America to run for any office. We need to deport any that want Sharia law. We have one law the Constitution.
The legacy media has blood on their hands. Academia is no better.
Stop mail in voting, etc
It is amazing to me how much damage the Democrats have done to this country through the public school system.
Those with platforms who lie about conservative Americans must stop or be held accountable. Voting for Trump did not make one a Nazi or a Fascist. It’s OK to support Making America Great Again! Take note after Charlie was killed there were no buildings burned, no riots, no looting, no police spit on, no one else killed. We live in a country with two separate cultures. Somehow we must find a way to meet in the middle or one day the cultures will clash and blood will flow. In the meantime those in the media and those in Congress must stop bashing conservative Americans who want to achieve a better America.
Get rid of the Soros family! AND remove the fossil politicians with term limits.
All of these steps are critically important, but the only one that can be practically implemented with immediate results is stronger security.
What really needs to happen is to stop politicizing (on both sides) every issue. We must have open and sensible conversations. between opposing ideas. That is what makes America strong. Not violence, not hate, not looking for an enemy behind every person who disagrees with you. We are charged to love one another, not fight each other or agree with each other.
I did not vote because although they are all good ideas, I believe you left off the most important one. Promote and vote for conservatives! We have been side tracked because the left has been voted in and they have no morals, leading the country away from what the founding fathers envisioned!
I totally blame the media for the hate in this country due to their lies.
Leftist groups like Antifa, Act Blue and the Southern Poverty Law Center should be labeled (correctly) as domestic terrorists. They, and their media allies, are directly responsible for the political violence in this country. Treat them like the subversives they are.
Several of these options are good. But the Bible is clear and says that we must stand firm and tell the truth. Therefore, I believe continuing, as Charlie did, to stand and tell people the truth is most important.
This was a difficult poll to answer. “All of the above” would have been more to my liking. This violence has to end, we need to protect our fellow conservative, and we cannot lose the feeling conservatives and Charlie’s followers have right at this moment. It can’t wane under time; we must be vigilent.
Genesis 9:6 states, “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image”. This verse establishes the concept of retributive justice, where a premeditated murder results in a human-enacted death penalty. The reason given for this God given punishment is the sanctity of life, as human beings are created in God’s image. God is the Creator of life and is protecting the innocent and others in society. When you decide legally as a nation to murder almost 70 million little defenseless human beings you are a pagan nation and have become desensitized to the sanctity of life. Only the CREATOR has the RIGHT to GIVE life and TAKE life, not man.
There should of been a button for All
RIP Charlie. Your good work will be carried on!
All the points/options suggested in the poll are laudable, but civil debate is Charlie’s legacy. We need to promote this one as a memorial to him! As to the others, anyone fomenting political violence, particularly members of Congress, unless on the floor of their particular body, should be held to account for such speech. That kind of speech, the hateful kind, is not protected. If spewed from the mouth of a Senator or Representative, that person should be censured and if persistent about such talk, removed from Congress or the Senate as appropriate! Of course, there some in the House who don’t belong in this country for moral reasons, and they need to be removed from our shores immediately!
The choices here are pretty weak. I’d say it’s past time for President Trump to get serious about cleaning out the swamp and “perp” walking those creeps in the government and others that are responsible for trying to destroy our country.
Advocate that liberty is from God, and it is good.
Charlie’s fire and tenacity must not be allowed to dim. We all need to stand together to do our little part of advancing conservative and faithful thought. We can only advance Charlie’s legacy by bringing more people together in thought. The rest will take care of itself as our numbers grow stronger.
It was difficult to pick just one choice. All of the choices are needed, but the media and far left politicians are spuing so much hate and lies. They need to be called out on the lies. Republicans need to stand together, work together and be better.
It seems that conservatives are kind of divided on how to handle the situation. I think that all the ideas presented are good. We should use them all and more.
There should be tougher penalties for all crimes including mandatory execution for murder and drug dealing.
Picking one answer is like trying to only eat one Lays potato chip.
“Can’t eat just one”.
We as a nation has trusted the media to be a neutral entity to report truth! Good job on the brainwashing!
Causes makes outcomes.
We have enough laws and be carful of laws that protect on thoughts or words these new laws would just protect the ruling class like politicians and MSM Hollywood elites and would be weaponised agaist the rest of us
